The fact that multiple crew members communicate exactly how many minutes are left until breakfast service is over is impressive. They are ready to make hotcakes or sausage patties right up until the very end - that is good service. I should be so lucky rolling up to my local McDonald's at 10:10 only to be told breakfast is (arbitrarily) over.
As a customer, it's nice to see what goes on behind the scenes. Sometimes we can be very demanding, and it's nice to be reminded that there is an entire menu change that happens in real time. Surely it cant be easy.
It is too bad most McDonald's are not like this. Though there is one in Chicago with mostly latina's on the line and in the back, man they work hard and make GREAT food. Sadly, it is 2 1/2 hours from my home lol, none of the McDonald's around my home are this good.
I did this as a young teen into my early 20’s and I assure you, it’s not always easy and smooth. People can be very hateful, not understanding, as you mentioned. Now my son is doing this; thank you for realizing how hard most restaurant workers work.
@Iceify_ lucky my Sunday schedule is 11-7, and for 2 weeks I worked 2 hours overtime. I went on break at 7 the first Sunday and 1 pm on the second. It's all due to being understaffed and having 1-2 people in the kitchen
The effeciency of you and your crew is amazing. I'll never say that my local joint does bad when it comes to communication, but your crew is clearly a cut above the rest. Keep up the amazing work! I'd also like the mention the respect you have for your crew, not only with the way you talk to them but the fact that you work with them so well.
I never worked for McDonalds but I did work a kitchen cooking breakfast and lunch for a cafe in a large hospital. Its strange cause that life is well behind me, but I do miss the environment of cooking and the satisfaction it creates when you make food for people in a large quantity. I loved getting the order ticket and knowing exactly how long it took for eggs, bacon, sausage, quesadillas, and other items to be ready and time it all out to produce the item for the customer in a timely manner. I will say the best thing you can have as a cook is a caring and understanding staff that wont freak out when everything is backed up. Great video, loved seeing how McDonald's works behind the scenes.
Right, I always remember when we had hot lunch orders from the local schools. It was was a great experience, I was with that company for nearly 9 years when I decided to try a different career path
14:28 I love how you take the time to open the biscuit up and then smother it with gravy. Too many times have I gotten the gravy biscuit from Mcdonalds where it’s still one piece and off to the side completely dry with the gravy on the other side.
@pauldavis5665 High school teenagers quit jobs like these in less than a month with no two weeks notice lmao Every other week the employees constantly change at mcdonalds
Changeover from breakfast to lunch is the worst mainly because the last minute breakfast orders when we try to get rid of everything so we dont have high waste
Everyone should watch this and hopefully be more respectful of what it takes to prepare their food at these establishments. Real heroes at work. Thank you for your service!
I worked at McD from 2012-2018. Good memories. I'm 27 now and still miss the vibes. Obviously it sucked at times, but overall, I enjoyed the work. I would follow ALL the timer on the ULDs tyvm.
It used to really frustrate me when I’d get to McDonald’s 15-30 minutes before breakfast ended and I was told I couldn’t get a sausage cheese biscuit and a hash-brown (my two most favorite things) because breakfast was over. 😢 It’s great that you communicate with your crew and make sure everything is up and ready to go right up to the last-minute. That shows allot of kindness and awareness and definitely keeps customers coming back. 😎
As someone who has worked for McDonald's Canada for 3 years, I have all the respect in the world for my fellow Mickey-D's employees around the world. One thing I will mention is how surprised I am by the vast differences in uniforms. I am not insulting McDonald's USA in any form, but the uniforms seem to be less formal than those here in Canada. (Uniform is issued, must be tucked in, etc.) Nonetheless, all the respect in the fast food industry goes to your McDonald's. In every video I've seen on your channel your crew members are skilled and have some of the greatest communication skills I have seen at any fast food restaurant. I recently quit my 3 year gig and I must say that I will forever miss working at McD's. You are a great manager who ensures his crew members are competent and ready for anything a harsh lunch rush may bring. You run your franchise well. Keep lovin' it, Stephen!
Hi! It actually still depends on the store in question. A lot of people do not tuck in their uniforms at places I've seen. One place I've been to didn't even give you pants - as long as it's black, it's fine.
This is incredible to see because customers (like me) have NO idea that people are working this hard behind the scenes. I hope all of the people complaining about fast food workers making $15 and more now realize these people work hard. To me, this is worth well over $15/hour to work like this!
Im starting at McDonald’s very soon and these videos were what inspired me to apply, I even mentioned I watched these videos in my interview and it helped get me the job! You are amazing
I personally quit because management was more of a problem than help, but I wish you luck, strength, and mental fortitude. Sometimes we do these jobs because there's no choice and we need to eat, and if that's your situation, I hope you make it in your own way.
I’ve been working at McDonald’s in the back line/ girl since February of this year and I have to say your videos have helped me so much. I told all my coworkers about you and to my surprise they already knew about you!! Keep up the good work so will I!
If only it were like this back in the day. My store cut off breakfast 30 minutes early and it was hectic. No organization whatsoever, kudos to you sir!
When I last worked for a Maccas, The breakfast to lunch changeover was by far one of the most stressful times of the day with the compacting the remaining breakfast trays to take as little space as possible in the UHC in order to make room for the lunch trays, also somebody having to record temps for the lunch items that will be stored in the UHC, all while there had to be somebody initiate/assemble keeping up with the orders still coming in and I didn't forget to mention at any point the front can ask for pies or cookies to be baked so somebody has to put those in. It's just not a fun time lol.
Nice to see how your team is working. There is actually a more efficient way to put the full UHC in a different mode. You can select the button in the left upper corner and choose Modes, select your mode and the full UHC-unit is switched immediately.
amazing work ethic. communication, team work, quality, everything you want from an employee. looks like the whole staff is the same. Wish more places were like this not just this specific McDonalds
Many years ago, I was a GM and then a DM for Burger King. The transition from Breakfast to Lunch was the most difficult and stressful part of the day…. Not fun…
Was it just serendipitous that “Clocks” by Coldplay started playing exactly when you said “Alright.. I’m going to change over cabinets now, change over to lunch…” 😂
Saw your note that regions vote on products. That’s strange to me as McD always stood for consistency when traveling. I’m jealous of your breakfast selection there. I just figured many of those items were gone forever. Our local breakfast menu is tiny. I guess I now know it’s the local owners choosing that. Sucks. The loss of all day breakfast stopped an awful lot of visits for me. I can get a burger anywhere. Nice job on the changeover. Good crew.
They wouldn't know, the items aren't offered here or anywhere in the etire region, not that "local"... more like "surrounding multiple States..." I'm guessing more of a lazy/"we don't feel like it" thing than even attempted here, ever... @@mrbear1302

Yeah i love the Sausage McMuffin too. Its a shame they are price gouging loyal customers now though. I learned to make my own MickeeDee breakfasts at home saving me a ton of money. The price of single hash brown is 3.19. I remember when they were 2 for a dollar
I love these. This is my favorite tho - always been curious about the breakfast to lunch transition. Maybe a night close or an open next? Keep these coming man! I’m mesmerized by how you conquer process.
I had a friend who graduated high school with me, and his first job was McDonald's. I never scoffed or made fun of him, just happy he got the job. 10 years later he became higher management. 10 years after that he owned that building and a piece of the franchise. He retired at 40. I can't be mad at that.
I remember having to beg managment back in 2018-2019 to just let me bag orders or hand out drive thru orders because I despised having to pretty much run the kitchen by myself
Having worked in fast food for over 10 years it's unique to see how everyone works together. My restaurant never did breakfast (KFC) but there was constant communication from the front end order takers, drive thru team members, production and the cooks. It was always called out when we were running low on product, always to ensure we were never completely out. Even after we officially closed if we had customers and the product was available (fryers and cookers were off) we'd make it. For example if someone came through at 10:05pm looking for a Big Crunch combo, we'd make the sandwich, drink and probably throw in a few tenders/pieces of chicken as we couldn't make fries because our fryers take at least 30 minutes to heat up. I miss that job sometimes. We had a great team that was always worked together
Thanks for this video! I’m one of the folks who comes in at the transition and tries to Norse both breakfast and lunch….wife is a vegetarian and prefers and egg/cheese muffin while the rest of the family wants lunch food. We were sad to see the all day breakfast go away
same here. I was bummed I could no longer enjoy a Sausage Egg & Cheese McGriddle for Lunch or Dinner . Last time I went through the Drive thru, I ordered a FDilet O Fish with Extra cheese, Large Fries, Large Coke No Ice and Cookies, they messed up the sand wid Gave me a Filet of Fish but instead of Extra Cheese, it was the normal half slice and they added BACON.
My last job was at McDonald's and I did enjoy it and now that I'm retired I miss it and the friends I made there,my last job at my restaurant was maintenance/what ever else needed to be done thank you for bringing back great memories!
I worked at McDonalds in high school (2006 ish). Its interesting to see the procedures, equipment, and things that have changed and stuff that is still the same. Nice video
As a new McDonald's employee, I've seen a flawless transition between breakfast and lunch! Our managers make sure that this goes as flawless as possible. During this time of the day, we have at least 4 people in the kitchen.
It’s so strange seeing this. I worked at McDonald’s briefly almost 15 years ago when I was a teenager. I hardly remember anything other than how much I absolutely dreaded showing up. I joined the marines instead and ended up getting a surprise boot camp date. I didn’t even tell my boss and just stopped showing up 😂
What's the weirdest transition request you've ever had? Would it be possible to do something as outrageous as like a steak, egg, cheese and 10:1 meat bagel?
I’m in the food industry but I’m a server it’s impressive to see this actually. I like how you take pride in what you do. Unfortunately buy me they don’t hold themselves to such high standards.
I had worked in the past for 6 years when I was younger, what a fantastic and great experience. Nowadays with new tech is much more easier. Im from Argentina
@@ademhuseinovicBecause it's the same reason why they just don't give it to the homeless, What if somebody is allergic or can't eat certain types of food especially when they didn't ask for It, Or what if you throw in something and somebody fool and they eat it thinking? It is what they ordered but it wasn't and they ended up getting sick because of a medical reaction to it now you get a Law suit
i been trying to pay employees $100k for 15 years but cant find anyone that can work a fraction as hard as you. it take 5 my employees to do what you did. and then fast food workers think mowing lawns is hard. we wouldve had a 5 minute break at beginning of video and another 5 min break after and a 5 min break about every 15 min or so all day with some breaks 10 or 15 minutes.
I go to a nearby McDonald's about three times a week, and this operation is like night and day compared to it. Just the other day I went in and witnessed the crackhead looking manager arguing with a they/them type employee over something another worker said. It got heated to the point where the manager said F it, lobby's closed and locked the door while I was still inside! I got my food and realized it was just locked from within, but an Uber Eats driver was trying to get in but was locked out. So as I left I held the door open for him, then a group of 5 followed behind him. I turned back and that manager gave me the evilest stink eye ever.
hands down the best mcdonks breakfast item is the bacon egg and chesse bagel with a hash brown. On god that slaps so hard in the morning, I know it's bad for me, but GOD DAMMN
During the breakfast to lunch transition when I worked there as a punk 16 year old in 1992, we used to like to slide a nice hamburger patty under the hot cakes in the hot cakes & sausage.
This must be mornings, my shifts start at 2-3 so I’m usually in way after breakfast is over. I don’t see any eggs, muffins, or such being made, usually Pattie’s with onions, regular meat and quarters, along with the chicken flavors
Hi! Fan from Mexico, I want personally, well digitally, thank you for showing these videos, as a costumer myself, I tend to not be demanding or an ahole, because I know how hard it is to work on a rush, (when I was 13, my father RIP made work as a bad packing boy at a supermarket) and looking at these menu transitions proves even more that we as costumers must remember that PEOPLE work behind the counter the best they can :)

No drama at this McDonalds. Good management. My McDs you can hear fighting and arguing. Zero peace....all chaos in the back.
Wow. Working at Mcdonalds takes more skill, concentration, and coordination than i thought. Very impressive.
Having worked in fast food for over 10 years it's unique to see how everyone works together. My restaurant never did breakfast (KFC) but there was constant communication from the front end order takers, drive thru team members, production and the cooks. It was always called out when we were running low on product, always to ensure we were never completely out. Even after we officially closed if we had customers and the product was available (fryers and cookers were off) we'd make it. For example if someone came through at 10:05pm looking for a Big Crunch combo, we'd make the sandwich, drink and probably throw in a few tenders/pieces of chicken as we couldn't make fries because our fryers take at least 30 minutes to heat up. I miss that job sometimes. We had a great team that was always worked together
Thanks for this video! I’m one of the folks who comes in at the transition and tries to Norse both breakfast and lunch….wife is a vegetarian and prefers and egg/cheese muffin while the rest of the family wants lunch food. We were sad to see the all day breakfast go away
same here. I was bummed I could no longer enjoy a Sausage Egg & Cheese McGriddle for Lunch or Dinner . Last time I went through the Drive thru, I ordered a FDilet O Fish with Extra cheese, Large Fries, Large Coke No Ice and Cookies, they messed up the sand wid Gave me a Filet of Fish but instead of Extra Cheese, it was the normal half slice and they added BACON.
My last job was at McDonald's and I did enjoy it and now that I'm retired I miss it and the friends I made there,my last job at my restaurant was maintenance/what ever else needed to be done thank you for bringing back great memories!
HE'S BACK!!! 🔥❤
I have a new found respect for fast food workers. Oh my goodness! I would "fall out!!"
I worked at McDonalds in high school (2006 ish). Its interesting to see the procedures, equipment, and things that have changed and stuff that is still the same. Nice video
and now you're a tiktoker who wants to be an instagramer?:)
As a new McDonald's employee, I've seen a flawless transition between breakfast and lunch! Our managers make sure that this goes as flawless as possible. During this time of the day, we have at least 4 people in the kitchen.
It’s so strange seeing this. I worked at McDonald’s briefly almost 15 years ago when I was a teenager. I hardly remember anything other than how much I absolutely dreaded showing up. I joined the marines instead and ended up getting a surprise boot camp date. I didn’t even tell my boss and just stopped showing up 😂
Well trained staff! Next time I order something, I'll think of this video....haha.
What's the weirdest transition request you've ever had? Would it be possible to do something as outrageous as like a steak, egg, cheese and 10:1 meat bagel?
Man mcdonalds needs to sponsor you because these videos make me want to go get some McDonalds haha.
I like how most of us line workers adopt the same style of stacking multiple patties onto one sandwich then just move them as needed
I’m in the food industry but I’m a server it’s impressive to see this actually. I like how you take pride in what you do. Unfortunately buy me they don’t hold themselves to such high standards.
Is your store 24/7? If so, it would be interesting to see how you guys do overnight tasks (or close tasks).
It’s not :(
I had worked in the past for 6 years when I was younger, what a fantastic and great experience. Nowadays with new tech is much more easier. Im from Argentina
Question: What do you do with the leftover food from breakfast to lunch?
Awesome videos!
We donate ours to a local charity! They only accept certain items based on food safety but it is actually a lot. Anything they won’t accept we waste.
@@StephenPatula Nice I was hoping that mcdonalds didnt just throw it out like dunking dounts
came here to ask this, thnx
@StephenPatula why don't restaurants just throw in some freebies towards the end to the last customers?
@@ademhuseinovicBecause it's the same reason why they just don't give it to the homeless, What if somebody is allergic or can't eat certain types of food especially when they didn't ask for It, Or what if you throw in something and somebody fool and they eat it thinking? It is what they ordered but it wasn't and they ended up getting sick because of a medical reaction to it now you get a Law suit
0:50 Santa Stephen “oh, hoo hoo hoo, almost lost it” 😂 gets me every tiem
I know people knock ‘em but the burritos are the only McDs breakfast I eat.
Same!! They are my favorite!
I love your videos so much, I work the night shift so I really enjoy the morning videos so see what goes on before I show up
I actually got an interview at McDonald’s tomorrow I’m hoping to learn from your vids that I been watching for awhile now lol
How did it go?!
theres something about coldplay playing in a mcdonalds is so comforting and yet so unnerving
i been trying to pay employees $100k for 15 years but cant find anyone that can work a fraction as hard as you. it take 5 my employees to do what you did. and then fast food workers think mowing lawns is hard. we wouldve had a 5 minute break at beginning of video and another 5 min break after and a 5 min break about every 15 min or so all day with some breaks 10 or 15 minutes.

"SWITCH TO LUNCH! WE'VE GOT A BUS!"
As a casual McDonald’s enjoyer, I appreciated seeing how you transitioned from breakfast to lunch. 10/10, would eat at your location.
Fin.
Right off the bat, one of my favourite Coldplay songs!
I go to a nearby McDonald's about three times a week, and this operation is like night and day compared to it. Just the other day I went in and witnessed the crackhead looking manager arguing with a they/them type employee over something another worker said. It got heated to the point where the manager said F it, lobby's closed and locked the door while I was still inside! I got my food and realized it was just locked from within, but an Uber Eats driver was trying to get in but was locked out. So as I left I held the door open for him, then a group of 5 followed behind him. I turned back and that manager gave me the evilest stink eye ever.
And then the customers started clapping and cheering for you and then the mayor gave you $5,000,000.
Totally a real story!
hands down the best mcdonks breakfast item is the bacon egg and chesse bagel with a hash brown. On god that slaps so hard in the morning, I know it's bad for me, but GOD DAMMN
You may not like it, but this is what peak meal transition looks like
Wow, very interesting, you’re very professional. 👍🏻
I’m sorry, but McDonald’s breakfast is my guilty pleasure. That sausage biscuit with a hash brown on it. Oooof
During the breakfast to lunch transition when I worked there as a punk 16 year old in 1992, we used to like to slide a nice hamburger patty under the hot cakes in the hot cakes & sausage.
This is truly mesmerizing to watch.
the urge to shout "aye kommandant!" for every response to some instruction is strong with this one... it just feels so right to shout it
mans folding speed at 4:13, 5:30, 6:10, 8:41, 9:06, 10:28, 11:31, 13:56, and 14:58 are on another level
Man I miss that steak, egg, and cheese bagel. They don’t serve it here in Hawaii and I got confused reactions when I ordered it. Lol
This must be mornings, my shifts start at 2-3 so I’m usually in way after breakfast is over. I don’t see any eggs, muffins, or such being made, usually Pattie’s with onions, regular meat and quarters, along with the chicken flavors
I can’t don’t k is how but your videos are so satisfying and entertaining, you wouldn’t think so just from what they are about but they are
Hi! Fan from Mexico, I want personally, well digitally, thank you for showing these videos, as a costumer myself, I tend to not be demanding or an ahole, because I know how hard it is to work on a rush, (when I was 13, my father RIP made work as a bad packing boy at a supermarket) and looking at these menu transitions proves even more that we as costumers must remember that PEOPLE work behind the counter the best they can :)
Looks like a reoccurring lucid nightmare...
But if you’re lovin’ it, more power to you.
Bring back breakfast 24/7!
amazing this should be like a Training videos for newbie that work at McDonalds
